My parents both had it with great success, but I also know that they have both regressed quite a bit. Maybe thats more to do with their age, but I'm concerned if I get it done at 24/25 and then 10 years later I'm having problems again when I'm still relatively young. Thoughts?

If your prescription has been stable for a few years I would do it sooner, rather than later. Everyone starts to need glasses again in their 40s, so the sooner you get it done, the more years you will have without correction. There may be a small regression, but that can be touched up if needed.
